ARMOR sweater

Discover the charming ARMOR sweater pattern, a delightful addition to your knitting repertoire that combines elegance and texture beautifully. This cozy sweater features a unique stitch pattern inspired by a cute hat design, making it perfect for anyone looking to create a stylish, all-over textured sweater with an elegant high collar.

The ARMOR sweater is ingeniously crafted seamlessly from the top down. You’ll begin by knitting the sophisticated collar in the custom collar stitch pattern, followed by strategic increases to establish the stunning armor stitch design. The innovative yoke is completed with raglan increases, ensuring a comfortable fit that flatters the silhouette beautifully. Once you’ve finished the yoke, the sleeve stitches are placed on hold while you cast on underarm stitches, allowing you to continue crafting the body of the sweater in the eye-catching armor stitch all the way to the hem.

After successfully completing the body, the sleeve stitches are returned to the needles for further knitting in the round. You’ll continue with the armor stitch pattern until each sleeve reaches your desired length, resulting in a cohesive and stylish finish that extends throughout the garment.

This versatile garment is designed with approximately 22 cm (8¾”) of positive ease for smaller sizes and narrower body types, ensuring a comfortable yet flattering fit. For larger sizes and bustier figures, the design gradually decreases the positive ease, making sure it suits a variety of body types. The sample shown is Size 3 featuring the recommended 22 cm (8¾“) positive ease, highlighting how this pattern accommodates a broad range of wearers.
